ABOUT ME

Hi! My partner and I live in Urbana (I just moved here from Atlanta) and are loving the midwest. We both like to study and work a lot, but also to have fun and bike around. I love meeting people and would love to cook and share a meal with people. I am passionate about human rights. I really enjoy being outdoors. I like adventures, wandering, and good coffee. I really like thrift stores and DIY projects.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't be tied down by things you don't enjoy. Love those around you. Never stop learning, asking questions, exploring. Be open-minded and enjoy where you are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travelled through Europe a couple years ago met some amazing people through the CS project. From coffee to late night concerts to couchsurfing, I love meeting people and just talking.
I am traveling around a little bit for fun and work, and also would love to have people stay with us.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Spending some time with some awesome people. I've met up for coffee/drinks in Berlin, Amsterdam, and Utrecht, and surfed in Stockholm and Amsterdam.

I love reading and I love all of Jonathan Safran Foer's books.
